Wait, what about Rottzombie and myself? We can't be zombies twice!  ???

Why not?  There is no specific rule against it.

I'm getting married in two hours, save that extra stool for my husband
Congrats!! I'm happy for you, best wishes for a fruitful and happy marriage.

On another note; After 2 years of being out of school, i'm going back this spring (just to community college) to finish my associates degree. I still have no idea what im going to do next, or what I would like to get a degree in, but I plan to finish at a respected University at some point. Its been a pretty uneventful 2 years.

I'm not particularly looking forward to writing essays.

That's wonderful news, congratulations.

Erm... actually we have one less now.

Why not?  There is no specific rule against it.

Actually there is, if you follow the Romero rules at least, then a zombie comes back to life in the body of a dead human, if a human dies from a gunshot to the head or something then they wouldn't resurrect as a zombie. So if a zombie 'died' and the only way to do that is to shoot it in the head then it's brain would be too pancaked for a successful reanimation. If said zombie got bit then it would have no effect because it's not the bite that turns a person it only drains them of life until they die. As you can probably tell this wouldn't work on zombies...

I think I see now why I'm the only one who isn't married...  :(

You can enjoy a grander sight
By climbing to a greater height

I have run out of places to climb. I will abandon this body and take to the air. We will leave twin vapor trails in the air, white lines etched into these rocks. I am the aerial. In my passing, I will send news to each and every star.

I think you have to consider the very real possibility that Romero was wrong.

My husband says it's based on The origin and cause of zombification. Carribean/voodoo cursed type or Rage virus type could be bitten by a Romero/Brooks dead/Solanum zombie and be rezombified into an undead/rotting body type. This would involve the initial zombification, which leaves the victim with a living body ( i.e. heart pumping, lungs breathing), being overiden by the second zombification which causes total mind and body death (i.e. ceasing of heart and lung function) before the body is reanimated without proper organ function being restored.

(This is from the man that waited 7 hours in line to hear Max Brooks speak and gave an hour and a half lecture on zombies in American culture)

B-but that's impossible!

Fair point, but I never figured that 'virus zombies' would co-exist with the 'when hell is full they dead will walk the earth' kind, though that would make an awesome movie.

But wouldn't it be plausable that a voodoo zombie master could try sending his mind-controled servents to battle what could at first seem to be a rival shamans creations only for his own zombis to be rezombified against him?

One thing remains true: Shoot them in the head, only way to deal with a zombie, and it prevents non-undead zombies from rezing LOL

We ordered that two years ago!
Still better late than never, welcome to the UV.  :)


Interestingly enough, I'm actually from a town famous for its hat manufacturers.
